A platform for research: civil engineering, architecture and urbanism
This paper demonstrates the potential of computer based systems for checking building design proposals against statutory instruments for Building and Buildings. In the Department of Architecture, University of Bristol, a computer-aided design guide to the Thermal Insulation of Dwellings, Part F of the current English Building Regulations, has been developed. This design guide is explained and is used to demonstrate how design proposals are checked and how guidance is given to the designer. Some problems encountered in the use of Building Regulations are indicated.
